Packaging equipment of the company was exchanged with cold storage delivery
vehicle. The transaction was deemed to have commercial substance.
When the fair values of both the acquired asset and the asset given up can be measured reliably, then the fair
value of the asset given up is used to measure the cost of the asset received unless the fair value of the asset
received is more evident, in which case it can be used; and If the fair values of both assets could not be
determined, the cost was going to be the carrying amount of the asset given up.
Conclusion
Since the fair value of the packaging equipment given up is available, the cost of the cold storage delivery vehicle is
R3,000,000.00.
